Improving government, business, and society through open data and evidence-informed public policy
In 2021, the Data Foundation strengthened its reputation as a leading, trustworthy think tank in Washington, D.C. Our research on data policy priorities was widely cited by the trade press and our materials served as the starting point for congressional and executive reforms related to financial data, open data, data sharing, and more. We also convened pivotal events – including GovDATAx, the RegTech Summit, and a Data Research Symposium – that gathered leading experts from industry, academia, and government to develop a shared understanding of challenges and solutions.
Our work brought attention to key issues and gaps in the data community and proposed practical solutions. Throughout the year, our efforts led to the enactment of milestone legislation, supported implementation of new transparency and data laws, and demonstrated new strategies for continuing to innovate with government data.
